Reports

[lonkm]

Since there are no new reports, I take it the fishing sucks on both ends of the lake.

[Wayne SW/MO]

I would imagine everyone is relearning the lake.

[Ham]

I would imagine since I can easily catch lots of fish on creeks and rivers that I'll do that until its too cool to wet wade. Once the weather is lots cooler, I'll turn the BassCat loose on Lower Bull Shoals. I'll have trip reports then.

Ham,

Have you turned your Basscat loose yet? Gonna be there in a few weeks, trying to nail down an area so we don't have to motor too far.

I fished the Diamond City area pretty hard last Saturday. The only thing I can report is that it was a nice day weather-wise.

I also fished for 8 hrs on Saturday, very nice out, but only had 1 walleye, 3 crappie and of coarse quite a few small bass. w-temp was still 83 .

[Ham]

Nope. Nary a trip on BSL. I've made 4 trips this month and caught 250 fish, but none from BSL.

I fished Sunday from Tucker to Diamond City. One walleye, on a trolled crank.

You can see a ton of show on sonar, but I think the fish are stuffed full of shad. Anyway, I haven't figured out how to make them bite. Lonkm is right--no news is usually bad news.

What type of area were you seeing fish in (points, flats, drop offs) and at what depths?

[powerdive]

Deep flats/edges, 28-40+.

There are some deeper, but no sense bringing those fish that far up this time of year. As if I could catch 'em anyway.
